Pocono International Raceway

Pocono International Raceway is a 2.5 mile high banked oval (36 degrees)
with a number of possible infield road course arrangements, located
in the wilderness of northeastern Pennsylvania.
In the course of a season, Pocono hosts two NASCAR Winston Cup
races, an SCCA National and a number of SCCA Regionals. Pocono
has hosted Indycar races in the past, but not recently.

This map shows the course currently being used by the SCCA, run
clockwise, with the chicane on the Long Pond Straight:

The following map shows a course used by the SCCA some years ago,
which uses the older north infield course and a newer south infield course.
This course was discontinued due to issues with lack of runoff at key
locations on the south infield segment.

The following map shows the north infield course, used with the
southern end of the oval, which is the traditional SCCA course,
also used by some marque clubs such as the FCA.
This version was typically run counter clockwise. The location of the
original 3/4 mile oval is shown (the north end is labeled false grid);
little trace of this track remains.

A shorter alternative course often used by marque club
events is the north infield course with the northern end of the oval
(Big Bend and the North Straight, traveling in the same direction
in the infield section of the course.)

For Club events

The track entrance for club events is the Tunnel Entrance under
the Tunnel turn on Long Pond Road.
Track staff may require you to sign a track waiver before entering,
but will not charge admission for members of the club holding the event.
After passing through the tunnel, continue on the infield road
to the garage area. The NASCAR garages, which are straight ahead,
are not available for club events; instead turn left (signs will indicate
parking for ARCA and NASCAR "X" passes). As you follow this road, the grassy
paddock spaces will appear on the left.
Eventually it will curve to the right, entering the ARCA garage and paved
paddock area. Do not bring a large rig in here without a plan for parking it.

Registration is at the ARCA lounge in the back corner of the paved
paddock area.
Tech is in garages 1 & 2 across from the ARCA lounge. Impound is located in the
paved area between Tech and the ARCA lounge.
Gas pumps are located on the other side of Tech, between the garages
and the pits.
False Grid is located at Pit In.
When leaving the track at Pit Out, Tech is more or less straight ahead if you
need to report to impound.

and the fence, and under the shed beyond the ARCA Lounge.
Additional worker parking may be found near the other work areas.
Tech is in garages 1 & 2 across from the ARCA lounge.
False Grid is located at Pit In.

Some organizations (such as the SCCA) may cater worker lunch; otherwise,
lunch is available from the cafeteria which is a long walk away at the
far end of the NASCAR garages.
